Halo 4 will have massive Xbox 360 HDD install

If you plan on playing Halo 4 this November, you better have some HDD space reserved on Xbox 360. Microsoft has revealed that Halo 4 will require 8GB of free space to play Halo 4 Multiplayer. “At minimum, you’ll need at least an 8GB USB Flash Drive or an Xbox 360 Hard Drive to play Multiplayer mode in Halo 4,” according to the recently updated listing on Xbox.com

“For an optimal experience playing with an Xbox 360 Hard Drive is highly recommended,” Microsoft continues on their crusade to sell you either an 8GB/16GB Xbox 360 USB Flash Drive or 320GB Media Hard Drive.

Samsung is conveniently selling “pre-configured” Xbox 360 USB Flash Drives that should have enough space to play the game. Microsoft’s 320GB Media Hard Drive works with the Xbox 360 S consoles and are quite pricey. Brand new, the 320GB Media Drives will run you $129.99, but you also get a copy of Lego Star Wars III: The Clone Wars.

Marketing materials recently outed the content schedule that 343 Industries is getting set to deliver with Halo 4, and it includes a full season of Spartan Ops content, just for purchasing the game when it arrives this November, exclusively on the Xbox 360.
